you know uh violations that Donald Trump loves and wishes that he could do here without uh as much pushback as he gets for occasionally succeeding in doing those things.

But he's still we still live in a country where you can openly be like, murder that guy.

I don't like what he wrote in the news.

Uh and, you know, meanwhile of of course there are

um sympathetic to Trump.

You know, the it's the kind of global order that they're looking for.

You asking me, or you're asking Chad.

I'm sorry, you're asking Matt.

Either one of you.

I mean, I know I well, I mean I can't because I'm

I mean I'm bullish on obviously I think that that that divesting from global oil markets is one you know, one of the and building domestic renewable energy is obviously uh good for reducing our dependency on foreign oil and our susceptibility to this kind of manipulation.

I actually would be curious so to hear what uh Matt thinks about the same issue because on one hand, you know, uh w we we were actually talking to this uh

Uh with uh Senator Martin Heinrich last week.

I was talking, you know, I was asking him about replacing major sources of energy, and we're talking about nuclear and geothermal.

And I pointed out that, you know, one of the crucial differences between the two is that one creates toxic waste that lasts 10,000 years uh or longer.

And uh an interesting thing that point he made is like you, you know, solar arrays are really valuable, geothermal is really valuable, we'll constantly.

Concentrated solar power.

Uh I don't think we actually got into CSP on that episode, but um

Single sources of energy like a nuclear reactor are hard to recreate.

Now, what I'm curious about, what I think is interesting, is does a more distributed grid or do does a more distributed generation make from a like military, from a weaponry security standpoint, does that make us more or less vulnerable?
